Description:

Michael M. Ehrman, director; Robert G. Hasty, conductor

In Gilbert and Sullivan’s riotous parody of a stock melodrama, a curse on the Murgatroyd line decrees that every baronet of Ruddigore must commit a daily crime or suffer an agonizing death. When the latest baronet, living in disguise to escape the curse, seeks the hand of the most eligible bachelorette in the village of Rederring, wicked deeds, multiple betrothals, and visits from ancestral ghosts ensue. Performed in English.
